Pattaya

Pattaya City was once a sleepy fishing village located just two hours from Bangkok road travel on the East coast of Thailand, but 30 years on after the American G.I .s started using this area for R&R Pattaya City has become Thailand's premiere beach resort, attracting more than a million visitors a year and with a world wide reputation for Pattaya's wild nightlife and the wild Thai girls there.

Despite every few months or so another Western tabloid paper splashing a new sensational Pattaya sex story over its covers it is place that doesn't deserve the bad press it often receives. Pattaya City is an excellent family holiday area and much of the red light district is easily avoided and not as raunchy these days as you may have been led to believe.

Pattaya offers a host of world class hotels and resorts as well as cheaper guesthouse accommodation, some fine restaurants and wild bars, water sports, theme parks, botanical gardens, horse riding, paintball, bungee jumping, motor racing, museums, fishing, and the year round excellent weather allows great scuba to be enjoyed at all times at the nearby islands.

Well, the Pattaya reputation has of course come from somewhere and it's only fair to say that despite being a great place for a family and couple’s holiday Pattaya is also a playground for single men. Go Go bars and half naked pole dancing Thai girls, beer bars full of Thai girls with welcoming smiles, and always the chance of a night out becoming more wild than you could ever expect it to be. Pattaya City is a place for hedonism, a place for fun and fulfillment, and truly a place where your desires can become your experiences.
